[QuadList] OT--Early Television Foundation annual conferencecoverate--TV Technology magazine

[Ed Reitan]

Hi Ted,

Good Hearing from you.

I follow the quadlist news group and it appears as you have been having much fun.

hope you have some luck in finding some old CBS tape engineers at their reunion.

It would be interesting to hear if any remember CBS receiving a feed from NBC New York and NBC's  playback of "An Evening with Fred Astaire that went to air on CBS in 1965.  

CBS could not play the early RCA Labs color tape - it took NBC to do it.

  I should add that QuadList member and Emmy-winning engineer Ed Reitan made a presentation about RCA's prototype color sets. 


  Ed's done a lot of research into RCA color... and was instrumental in designing mods to Ampex AVR-1 boards to enable recovery of the oldest known color videotapes.

    Last seen at NAB... he's since been to Hillard, OH for the Early Television Foundation's annual gathering.


    James reports it had record attendance, and quite a few examples of old, cool technology:
